Foundation Problem Signs in Lynchburg
Foundation damage can be very complex. While some telltale problem signs are easily visible – including wall cracks, bowing basement walls, and uneven floors – others can go under the radar and be connected to other damage. These include sticking windows and doors, drywall nail pops, cracking and leaning chimneys, and foundation settlement. When in doubt, reach out to your local foundation repair specialists at JES for a complete foundation inspection to uncover what’s really going on with your Lynchburg home.
There could be numerous causes behind the foundation problems your Lynchburg home is experiencing. While it’s rare for construction issues to be sources, they do happen. The most common causes, however, are rooted in the soil. Situated in south central Virginia, Lynchburg has a combination of sandy loam and clay loam soil. It’s easy for these soils to become unstable, especially with an average of 42 inches of rainfall per year. Unstable, expansive, wet soil contributes to phenomena including the clay bowl effect and hydrostatic pressure that lead to cracking, bowing, leaking foundations.
Depending on your foundation type, the extent of damage, and other factors, your Lynchburg home can benefit from any number of foundation repair solutions. If your home is settling, piering systems – helical piers, push piers, or slab piers – can be used to stabilize and help lift the foundation. Walls that need to be repaired can benefit from carbon fiber reinforcements, wall repair beams, or wall anchors. Crawl space support posts can also be used to shore up and even out sagging floors.
Your foundation is a significant component of your Lynchburg home, and maintaining it is essential for its structural integrity and safety. Nobody should have to put up with a foundation that is settling, crumbling, or uneven. Ensure that it is correctly fixed and safeguarded with dependable solutions that can only be found from JES.

I moved into my home just over a year ago and have had three basement floodings. After trying to figure out the solution on my own, I gave JES a call. Best decision I ever made. The three young men who performed the basement waterproofing did an standing job for me. They were professional and courteous.

They did an excellent job! Jake H and Dontay W were very professional and gave daily updates on the progress. When they left, we couldn't even tell they had been here they cleaned up so well. Definitely happy with their work and would recommend to anyone.

Bradley was on time and very friendly. Even after we determined that the service I was looking for isn’t a service JES provides and I felt like I had wasted his time he remained professional and pleasant and assured me it was no trouble and he was happy to take a look around while he was here to see if there were any concerns that he could inform me about.Although I won’t be using this company for this project, I am pleased with experience and will definitely consider JES for future needs if they arise.(the service I was wanting: to have an egress window cut into the basement foundation)Update 12/7/22 – Bradley just called me and informed me that he found someone who may be able to help with the egress window. He definitely went above and beyond!

I had forman Charles and installers Hunter, Ricco, and Rock come out and encapsulate my crawl space today. The guys were prompt, professional, and very polite! I highly recommend their work (they need a drone to help with photos in tight crawlspaces like mine lol). This is a huge expensive project, but a heck of an investment. Dont hire your cousin to do this job (the previous owner of my house did this, my floors sag and i had mold on my joists), hire professionals, I highly recommend the JES crew. I will tell all my friends to go with JES if they have foundation issues. 10 out of 10! Thanks again guys!!!

We had a lot of hills we had to climb and plans to change but the JES team did it. They started the project, ran into some issues, and had to rewrite the plans. I made a few calls and management came out and the project was back on. Joseph “Joe” Palotas, Certified Field Inspector, and Nick Feaster, Sales Manager, did an amazing job of making sure we could continue the repairs when we hit a wall. Neither Joe nor Nick are scared to get their hands dirty. Nick even came out and explained in detail what needed to be done and put on his boot and went to work helping. The crew, Michael Burrell, Steve Marshall, and Nick Feaster are very nice, polite young men. They did an excellent job getting everything done in an acceptable time manner. When the project was complete they took the time to explain everything to me in great detail. Very happy with the service JES provided.

We had a drain system installed by JES last week. The installation went well. Our foreman and crew were great and if they ran into any issues they let us know and gave us a solution. We haven't had a chance to test the system yet, but I will update once we have. Our sales person (Joe Palotas) went above and beyond! He walked us through everything on our initial meeting and made us feel comfortable with the direction we went. I would highly recommend requesting him.

The crew foreman, Rod, kept me informed of their arrival time. Upon arrival we covered the installation details and everything was laid out as planned. He and his crew (Keenan and Shaq) were very courteous. The work was executed very timely and the workmanship exceeded my expectations! Would certainly recommend this hard working crew!
